Description

On the coast road, this building clinging to the rocks commands a breathtaking view of the bay of Marseille and its islands and the château d’If. A bracing Mediterranean breeze has refreshed the menu: roast squid, chickpea, lemon and ginger seasoning; carpaccio of grouper, cream of pinenuts, grilled capers and coriander; translucent monkfish, a reduction of fishbones, roasted spring cauliflower with seaweed. Local and wild fish of the day, without forgetting the ubiquitous bouillabaisse, are served alfresco. A landmark since 1855!

Review summary

Peron in Marseille offers stunning seaside views and vistas of the Château d'If, creating a romantic atmosphere ideal for couples. Service is generally praised as attentive and pleasant, though some note issues with pacing or aperitif presentation. Seafood is the highlight, particularly bouillabaisse, which receives mixed reviews; while some find it exquisite, others criticize it for being too salty or underwhelming. The menu is concise, focusing on Mediterranean flavors with creative touches. The primary drawback is value, as many guests find the prices for food and wine excessively high relative to the quality delivered, despite the exceptional setting.

Best for

Suitable for couples or tourists seeking a romantic seaside view experience who are less concerned about price.
